Sections 9 and 10 record the text of the acknowledgements and apology given by the Crown to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu in the deed of settlement. The acknowledgements and apology are to be read together with the historical account recorded in part 2 of the deed of settlement. 8 Summary of historical account Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu tradition records that before Europeans came to Te Aroha, Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu lived on the lands on and surrounding Te Aroha Maunga . In 1863, the Crown initiated war with Māori in the Waikato when its armed forces crossed the Mangatāwhiri Stream. Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu sent men to fight Crown forces in Waikato. The Crown regarded Māori who fought against it as rebels and as punishment confiscated 290,000 acres of land in the Tauranga district between 1865 and 1868. This included lands in which Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu had interests. It subsequently returned 240,000 acres to Māori in individualised title. In 1864, the Crown purchased the Katikati and Te Puna blocks. Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu had interests in some of those lands and received payment of £500. The 1866 deed for the blocks provided for reserves containing wāhi tapu and urupā but there is no evidence that those reserves were made. After the Crown acquired the Katikati and Te Puna blocks, Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu retained no lands in Tauranga Moana. In 1871, the Native Land Court overturned an earlier decision and awarded the Aroha block to Hauraki iwi including Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. Between 1872 and 1877, the Crown purchased much of the Aroha block from other iwi. Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu objected to other iwi receiving payment for land they considered to be theirs. In 1878, following an investigation by the Native Land Court, the entire block was awarded to the Crown, subject to the provision of reserves for Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. The Crown retained the hot springs near Te Aroha when the Omahu Reserve was granted to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu in 1878. According to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu traditions, the land was gifted to the Crown by the iwi, who would have ongoing rights to use the springs. By the early twentieth century, however, Māori no longer had free access to the springs or input into the management of this tapu site. In 1880, the Crown negotiated a lease with Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu to open a goldfield on the Omahu Reserve. As part of that agreement, the Crown promised to build a township at Te Aroha with a reserve for Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. In 1882, streets within the township on Māori reserved land were declared public roads. Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu received no compensation for this. Between 1884 and 1894, the Crown, local authorities, and private buyers progressively acquired Māori interests in Te Aroha. By the 1920s, the Crown had purchased almost all of the reserve land awarded to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. In the early twentieth century the Crown used special legislation to acquire further land in Te Aroha. Crown developments in the Te Aroha area continued in the 1960s. They included the construction of a road to the summit of Te Aroha and the granting of a mining licence to a private company. The mine site became severely polluted and the damage to this tapu land has caused ongoing distress to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. By the end of the twentieth century, less than 3% of the land in the Aroha block remained in Māori ownership. Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu’s resulting marginalisation, including the loss of te reo Māori, sickness, and socio-economic deprivation, caused much suffering for the iwi. With limited opportunities in their rohe, many Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu moved to cities. This undermined the ability of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu to sustain their culture and identity and to pass mātauranga Māori on to their mokopuna. He whakarāpopototanga o ngā kōrero tuku iho e pā ana ki ngā kerēme a ngāti rāhiri tumutumu E kī ana ngā tutuku a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, i mua atu i te taenga mai o te Pākehā ki Te Aroha, i te noho a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki ngā whenua o runga o Te Aroha Maunga , me ngā whenua i ōna taha. I te marama o Hūrae 1863 ka huakina e te Karauna tana pakanga ki te iwi Māori o Waikato, i te whakawhitinga o ana ope hōia i te awa o Mangatāwhiri. Ka tukua e Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu he tangata ki te whawhai ki ngā hōia o te Karauna i Waikato. E ai ki te Karauna ko ngāi Māori i whawhai ki a ia he iwi tutū, ā, hei whakawhiu i aua hapū ka murua e ia 290,000 eka o ngā whenua i te rohe o Tauranga i waenga i ngā tau 1865 me 1868. Kei roto i ēnei whenua ētahi i whai pānga ai a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki roto. Nō muri mai ka whakahokia e ia ētahi 240,000 eka ki te Māori hei whenua taitara takitahi. I te tau 1864 i hokona e te Karauna ngā poraka o Katikati me Te Puna. I whai pānga anō a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki ētahi o ēnei whenua, ā, i whiwhi ia i te utu £500. I raro i te tīti o 1866 mō aua poraka, tōna tikanga kia wehea he rāhui mō ngā wāhi tapu me ngā urupā, engari kāore he tohu i muri i tērā kua hangaia aua rāhui. I muri i te hoko a te Karaunga i ngā poraka o Te Puna-Katikati, kāore kau he whenua i toe mai mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i te rohe o Tauranga Moana. I te tau 1871 ka huripokina e te Kōti Whakawā Whenua Māori tētahi whakatau o mua, ā, ka whakawhiwhia te poraka o Aroha ki ngā iwi o Hauraki, tae atu ki a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. I waenga i ngā tau 1872 me 1877 i hokona e te Karauna te nuinga o te poraka o Aroha i ētahi atu iwi. I whakahē anō a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki te whiwhinga o ētahi atu iwi i te utu mō te whenua i mea rā rātou nō rātou kē anō. I te tau 1878 ka whakawhiwhia e te Kōti Whakawā Whenua Māori te katoa o te poraka ki te Karauna, mēnā ka whakatūria he rāhui motuhake mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. I puritia ngā puia i te takiwā o te Aroha e te Karauna, i te karātitanga o te Rāhui o Omahu ki a Ngāti Rāhiri i te tau 1878. E ai ki ngā kōrero tuku iho a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i takohatia aua whenua ki te Karauna e te iwi, me te kī, ka noho tonu ngā mōtika katoa ki te iwi kia whakamahi ia i aua puia. Engari nō te taenga ki ngā tau tuatahi o te rau tau rua tekau kāore i tino whakawāteatia ngā puia kia kore-utu mā ngāi Māori, ā, kāore ō rātou mana whakahaere i tēnei wāhi tapu. I te tau 1880 ka tau tētahi kirimana i waenga i te Karauna me Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu hei huaki i tētahi keringa kōura ki te Rāhui o Omahu. Hei wāhanga o tēnei kirimana, i takoto te kī taurangi a te Karauna ka hangaia e ia tētahi tāone i Te Aroha, me tētahi rāhui mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. I te tau 1882 ka whakapuakina e te Karauna ko ngā tiriti katoa i roto i te tāone i runga i ngā whenua rāhui Māori, he rori tūmatanui. Kāore kē a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i whiwhi kāpiheihana mō tēnei whakapuaki. I waenga i ngā tau 1884 me 1894 kua oti te hoko haere ngā pānga whenua Māori maha i Te Aroha e te Karauna, e ngā mana ā-takiwā me ngā kaihoko tūmataiti. Nō te taenga ki te ngahuru tau 1920 kua oti te nuinga o ngā whenua rāhui i whakawhiwhia ki a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu te hoko e te Karauna. I ngā tau tuatahi o te rau tau rua tekau ka whakaurua e te Karauna ētahi ture motuhake hei whakawhānui i tāna tango i ētahi atu pānga i te tāone o Te Aroha. I haere tonu ngā whanaketanga a te Karauna i te rohe o Te Aroha i te ngahuru tau 1960. Hei wāhi o aua mahi, ka hangaia he rori ki te tihi o te Aroha, ā, ka tukua hoki he raihana keringa ki tētahi kamupene tūmataiti. I noho ko ngā tūkinotanga a te keringa kōura me te rarunga o ēnei whenua tapu hei mamaetanga tino nui mā Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. Ka tae nei ki te mutunga o te rau tau rua tekau, he iti iho i te toru ōrau o ngā whenua o te poraka o Aroha i te noho tonu ki ngā ringaringa o te iwi Māori. Nā ngā hekenga o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i aua tau, tae atu ki te ngaromanga o te reo Māori, te kore e kake ki ngā taumata i ngā kura, te māuiui, me te rarunga i te taha oranga, i taumaha ai, i tino mamae ai te iwi. Nā te iti o ngā whāinga wāhi i tō rātou rohe, ka wehe atu te tini o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki te kimi mahi i roto i ngā tāone. Nā konei i uaua ai te mahi a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki te hapāi i āna tikanga me ōna āhuatanga, tae atu ki tōna kaha ki te tuku atu i te mātauranga Māori ki ā rātou mokopuna. 9 Acknowledgements The Crown acknowledges that Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu has well-founded and legitimate grievances, and that until now it has failed to address those in an appropriate manner. The Crown’s provision of redress to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu for those historical grievances is long overdue. The Crown acknowledges that the Tauranga raupatu and the subsequent Tauranga District Lands Acts 1867 and 1868 compulsorily extinguished all customary interests within the confiscation district, including those of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, and this was unjust and breached te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. The Crown acknowledges that— a it failed to actively protect Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu interests in lands they wished to retain when it initiated the purchase of Te Puna and Katikati blocks in 1864 without investigating the rights of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu; and b it also failed to actively protect Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu interests in land they wished to retain when it did not carry out its agreement in the 1866 Te Puna Katikati deed to set aside reserves, including certain wāhi tapu sites, and left Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu alienated from their ancestral lands in Tauranga; and c these actions breached te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. The Crown acknowledges that— a it introduced the native land laws without consulting Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu and the individualisation of title imposed on Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu lands, including sacred sites such as Te Aroha, was inconsistent with tikanga Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu; and b Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu whānau and hapū had no choice but to participate in the Native Land Court system to protect their interests in their lands and to integrate land into the modern economy; and c the operation and impact of the native land laws, in particular the awarding of land to individual Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu rather than to their iwi or hapū, made those lands more susceptible to partition, fragmentation, and alienation; and d this contributed to the further erosion of the traditional tribal structures of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, which were based on collective tribal and hapū custodianship of land, and the Crown failed to take adequate steps to protect those structures and this was a breach of te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. The Crown acknowledges that it deprived some Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu individuals of control of their land without their consent when it proclaimed a goldfield in Te Aroha, and that this failure to respect their legal rights was a breach of te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. The Crown acknowledges that valuable mineral resources on lands leased and sold by Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu provided economic benefits to the nation. The Crown acknowledges that— a it continued to control lands in Hauraki owned by Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, which were leased to settlers through residence site licences for many years after the decline of the gold mining industry in the region; and b it failed for many decades to regularly revise rents for residence site licence lands, and that Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu received rents well below market value for the lease of their lands as a consequence of this failure; and c it promoted legislation that converted residence site licences to leases in perpetuity, leaving Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu no alternative but to sell their lands to the Crown; and d these actions deprived Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu of their rangatiratanga over land subject to residence site licences and breached te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. The Crown acknowledges that once it acquired Te Aroha springs it did not make provision for Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu’s relationship with this tapu site, and this lack of recognition is a long-standing grievance for Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. The Crown acknowledges that Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu were rendered virtually landless due to the cumulative effect of Crown actions and omissions, including— a the purchasing of the Omahu, Wairakau, and Manawaru reserve blocks, which had been established to ensure that Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu retained sufficient land for their future needs; and b the taking of lands under public works legislation that were of particular significance to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu; and c the promotion of legislation, in 1911, to override Ema Lipsey’s will, which enabled the sale of land to the Crown that she had intended to remain with Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. The Crown further acknowledges that its failure to ensure that Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu retained sufficient lands for its present and future needs was a breach of te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi and its principles. The Crown acknowledges that environmental changes and pollution since the nineteenth century have been a source of distress and grievance for Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. In particular, the Crown acknowledges that— a gold mining on Te Aroha from 1880 caused pollution, and this has caused harm to the well-being of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu; and b further mining for copper, zinc, and lead on Te Aroha maunga from 1966 to 1973 caused substantial environmental damage, and has left the Tui mine site as one of the most polluted sites in Aotearoa New Zealand; and c the damage done to Te Aroha maunga is an ongoing and deeply felt grievance for Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. The Crown acknowledges that public works takings have impeded the ability of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu to maintain and foster spiritual connections with their ancestral lands. The Crown acknowledges that through the alienation of most of their land Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu have lost control over many of their significant sites and resources. This has had an ongoing impact on the ability of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu to maintain spiritual connections to their ancestral lands, undermined their economic base, and eroded their capacity to fulfil their kaitiaki responsibilities. The Crown acknowledges the harm endured by many Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu tamariki from decades of Crown policies that strongly discouraged the use of te reo Māori in schools. The Crown also acknowledges the detrimental effects this had on Māori language proficiency and fluency and the impact on the intergenerational transmission of te reo Māori and knowledge of mātauranga Māori practices. The Crown acknowledges that the health of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu has been worse than that of many other New Zealanders, and they have not had the same opportunities in life that many other New Zealanders have enjoyed. The Crown recognises that through its actions and omissions it has contributed to the economic and spiritual hardship and marginalisation of Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu in their rohe.

Kei te whakaae te Karauna i raruraru ētahi o ngā tāngata takitahi o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i te rironga atu o ō rātou whenua, kāore hoki aua tāngata i whakaae i te tuatahi, i te whakapuakitanga a te Karauna i te keringa kōura i Te Aroha, ā, ka noho tāna kore e hāpai i ō rātou mōtika ā-ture hei takanga anō o te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi me ōna mātāpono. Kei te whakaae te Karauna nā ngā rawa matū i ngā whenua i rīhitia, i hokona rānei e Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i hua ake ai he painga ā-ōhanga mō te motu katoa. Kei te whakaae te Karauna— a i whakahaere tonu ia i ngā whenua o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i Hauraki i rīhitia ki ngā manene nā runga i ngā raihana whenua kāinga noho mō ngā tau tini i muri mai i te hekenga o ngā mahi keri kōura i te rohe; b i ngoikore ia i tāna korenga e hoki mai ki te whakahōu i ngā rēti, mō ngā ngahuru tau tini, mō ngā raihana whenua kāinga noho, ā, i whiwhi a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i ngā rēti i raro rawa i tō te ao hokohoko whānui mō ngā rīhi whenua, nā tēnei ngoikorenga te take; c i whakaurua mai e ia he ture hei huri i ngā raihana whenua kāinga noho hei rīhi mutunga kore, ā, nā konei kāore he huarahi kē atu i wātea ki a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i te hokonga o ō rātou whenua e te Karauna; ā d ko ēnei mahi i tango i te rangatiranga o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki ō rātou whenua i raro i aua raihana whenua kāinga noho, ā, he takahanga anō tēnei i te Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi me ōna mātāpono. Kei te whakaae te Kārauna, i muri i tāna hoko i ngā puia i Te Aroha kāore i whakaritea he tikanga hei tiaki i te pānga tuku iho o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki tēnei wāhi tapu, ā, ko tēnei korenga e whakaae ki aua here tētahi nawe nui mā Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i ngā whakatupuranga maha. Kei te whakaae te Karauna nā ēnei mahi kua tata whenua kore tonu a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, nā ngā mahi hē pūputu a te Karauna, tae atu ki āna korenga e mahi i ngā mahi e tika ana, tae atu ki: a tāna hoko i ngā poraka rāhui o Omahu, o Wairākau, me Manawaru, i whakatūria rā kia nui anō ngā whenua mō ō rātou hiahia ā raurangi; b tāna tangohanga i ētahi whenua i raro i ngā ture mahi tūmatanui, i noho hei whenua rangatira mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu; ā c te hāpainga o tētahi ture i te tau 1911, hei pēhi atu i ngā whakapuaki o te wira a Ema Lipsey, i āhei ai ōna whenua i hiahia rā ia kia noho tūturu ki a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu te hoko rawa. Nā ngā mahi hē a te Karuana, arā, tāna kore e whakarite tikanga e mau ai tētahi rahinga whenua tōtika mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu o aua wā, mō raurangi hoki, he tika tēnei kia kīa he takahanga o Tiriti o Waitangi/the Treaty of Waitangi me ōna mātāpono. Kei te whakaae te Karauna ko ngā huringa i te taiao me ngā takakinotanga i ngā whenua me ngā wai, mai i te rau tau tekau mā iwa tētahi take pouritanga nui, tētahi nawe nui hoki mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu. Otirā kei te whakaae te Karauna: a nā ngā mahi keri kōura i Te Aroha mai i 1880 ka takakinotia te whenua, ā, ka whara te hauora o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i tēnei mahi; b nā ētahi atu mahi keri konukura, konutea me te konumatā i Te Aroha maunga mai i 1966 ki 1973 ka tino tūkinotia te taiao, ā, kua noho te keringa kōura Tūī hei wāhi tino kino rawa atu te takakinotanga i Aotearoa New Zealand; ā c ko te takakinotanga i Te Aroha maunga tētahi nawe mauroa, take whakamamae hoki mō Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu.

Kei te whakaae te Karauna nā te rironga atu o te nuinga o ō rātou whenua kua riro atu hoki te mana whakahaere mā Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i te nuinga o ō rātou wāhi tapu me ō rātou rawa. Kua tino pā hoki tēnei ki te kaha o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki te whakapipiri atu ki ō rātou whenua tuku iho, kua turakina hoki tōna puna ora, tōna puna kai hoki, ā, kua whakapōrarurarutia āna mahi kaitiaki i tōna rohe anō. Kei te whakaae te Karauna ki ngā mahi tūkino i pā ki ngā tamariki o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, i kore ai e whakaaetia e ngā kaupapa here o te Karauna kia kōrero Māori i roto i ngā kura. Kei te whakaae hoki te Karauna ki ngā pānga kino o aua kaupapa here ki te mōhiotanga me te matatau ki te reo, me te pānga o ēnei āhuatanga ki te tukunga ā-reanga o te reo Māori, me te mātauranga Māori. Kei te whakaae te Karauna kua hē kē atu te hauora o Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu i tō te nuinga o ngā tāngata o Aotearoa, ā, kāore i ōrite ngā huarahi i wātea ki ōna uri ki ō te nuinga o ngā tāngata o Aotearoa. Kei te whakaae te Karauna nā āna mahi, hapanga hoki i taumaha kē atu ai ngā raruraru ā-ōhanga, ā-wairua mā te iwi, ā, i parea ai hoki a Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu ki tahaki i tōna āke rohe. 10 Apology Crown apology The text of the apology offered by the Crown to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, as set out in the deed of settlement, is as follows: “(a) The Crown’s acts and omissions, in the history of its relationship with Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu, have led to warfare, confiscation, and the loss of the lands which had sustained you for generations. b In promoting laws and policies which led to the alienation of your whenua and irreversible damage to your sacred taonga Te Aroha maunga, the Crown has caused significant and lasting harm to Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu.

Subsections (2) and (3) do not take effect until the trustees referred to in subsection (3) have jointly provided the Crown with a registrable covenant in relation to Ngā Tukituki a Hikawera on the terms and conditions set out in part 5.6 of the documents schedule. The covenant is to be treated as a conservation covenant for the purposes of— a section 77 of the Reserves Act 1977; and b section 27 of the Conservation Act 1987. In this section and section 43 ,— Ngāti Maru settlement legislation means legislation that— a settles the historic claims of Ngāti Maru; and b provides for the vesting of an undivided one-third share of the fee simple estate in Ngā Tukituki a Hikawera and Tangitū in the trustees of the Ngāti Maru Rūnanga Trust Ngāti Tamaterā settlement legislation means legislation that— a settles the historical claims of Ngāti Tamaterā; and b provides for the vesting of an undivided one-third share of the fee simple estate in Ngā Tukituki a Hikawera and Tangitū in the trustees of the Ngāti Tamaterā Treaty Settlement Trust. 43 Tangitū This section takes effect on and from the latest of the following dates: a the settlement date: b the settlement date under the Ngāti Maru settlement legislation: c the settlement date under the Ngāti Tamaterā settlement legislation. Tangitū (being part of Kaimai Mamaku Conservation Park) ceases to be part of the Park and a conservation area under the Conservation Act 1987. The fee simple estate in Tangitū vests as undivided third shares in the specified groups of trustees as tenants in common as follows: a a share vests in the trustees under this paragraph; and b a share vests in the trustees of the Ngāti Maru Rūnanga Trust under the Ngāti Maru settlement legislation; and c a share vests in the trustees of the Ngāti Tamaterā Treaty Settlement Trust under the Ngāti Tamaterā settlement legislation.

The covenant is to be treated as a conservation covenant for the purposes of— a section 77 of the Reserves Act 1977; and b section 27 of the Conservation Act 1987. 44 Properties vest subject to or together with interests Each cultural redress property vested under this subpart is subject to, or has the benefit of, any interests listed for the property in the third column of the table in Schedule 1 . 45 Interests in land for certain reserve properties This section applies to all or the part of each reserve property listed in subsection (2) that remains a reserve under the Reserves Act 1977 (the reserve land ), but only while the reserve land has an administering body that is treated as if the land were vested in it. The reserve properties are— a Omahu whenua: b Te Awe whenua: c Tumutumu whenua. If the reserve property is affected by an interest in land listed for the property in Schedule 1 , the interest applies as if the administering body were the grantor, or the grantee, as the case may be, of the interest in respect of the reserve land. Any interest in land that affects the reserve land must be dealt with for the purposes of registration as if the administering body were the registered owner of the reserve land. However, subsections (3) and (4) do not affect the registration of the easements referred to in sections 31(6), 32(7), and 36(6) . Subsections (3) and (4) continue to apply despite any subsequent transfer of the reserve land under section 55 . 46 Interests that are not interests in land This section applies if a cultural redress property is subject to an interest (other than an interest in land) that is listed for the property in Schedule 1 , and for which there is a grantor, whether or not the interest also applies to land outside the cultural redress property. The interest applies as if the owners of the cultural redress property were the grantor of the interest in respect of the property, except to the extent that subsection (3) applies. If all or part of the cultural redress property is reserve land to which section 45 applies, the interest applies as if the administering body of the reserve land were the grantor of the interest in respect of the reserve land. The interest applies— a until the interest expires or is terminated, but any subsequent transfer of the cultural redress property must be ignored in determining whether the interest expires or is or may be terminated; and b with any other necessary modifications; and c despite any change in status of the land in the property. 47 Registration of ownership This section applies to a cultural redress property vested in the trustees under this subpart. Subsection (3) applies to a cultural redress property (other than a jointly vested property or the Te Awe whenua), but only to the extent that the property is all of the land contained in a record of title for a fee simple estate. The Registrar-General must, on written application by an authorised person,— a register the trustees as the owners of the fee simple estate in the property; and b record any entry on the record of title and do anything else necessary to give effect to this subpart and to part 5 of the deed of settlement. Subsection (5) applies to— a a cultural redress property (other than a jointly vested property), but only to the extent that subsection (2) does not apply to the property: b the Te Awe whenua. The Registrar-General must, in accordance with a written application by an authorised person,— a create a record of title for the fee simple estate in the property in the name of the trustees; and b record on the record of title any interests that are registered, noted, or to be noted and that are described in the application. For a jointly vested property, the Registrar-General must, in accordance with a written application by an authorised person,— a create a record of title for an undivided third share of the fee simple estate in the property in the names of the trustees; and b record on the record of title any interests that are registered, noted, or to be noted and that are described in the application. Subsections (5) and (6) are subject to the completion of any survey necessary to create a record of title. A record of title must be created under this section as soon as is reasonably practicable after the date on which the property vests, but not later than— a 24 months after that date; or b any later date that is agreed in writing,— i in the case of a property other than a jointly vested property, by the Crown and the trustees; or ii in the case of a jointly vested property, by the Crown, the trustees, and the other persons in whom the property is jointly vested. In this section, authorised person means a person authorised by— a the chief executive of LINZ for the following properties: i Kahumaro whenua: ii Te Ruinga whenua: iii Waterford Road property: b the Director-General for all other properties. 48 Application of Part 4A of Conservation Act 1987 The vesting of the fee simple estate in a cultural redress property in the trustees under this subpart is a disposition for the purposes of Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987, but sections 24(2A), 24A, and 24AA of that Act do not apply to the disposition. Section 24 of the Conservation Act 1987 does not apply to the vesting of— a a reserve property; or b Kahumaro whenua; or c Te Ruinga whenua. If the reservation of a reserve property under this subpart is revoked for all or part of the property, the vesting of the property is no longer exempt from section 24 (except subsection (2A)) of the Conservation Act 1987 for all or that part of the property. If all or any part of the Kahumaro whenua or the Te Ruinga whenua ceases to be a soil conservation reserve subject to the Soil Conservation and Rivers Control Act 1941 ( see sections 23(3) and 25(3) of this Act), the vesting of the property is no longer exempt from section 24 (except subsection (2A)) of the Conservation Act 1987 for all or that part of the property. Subsections (2) to (4) do not limit subsection (1) . 49 Matters to be recorded on record of title The Registrar-General must record on the record of title— a for a reserve property,— i that the land is subject to Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987, but that section 24 of that Act does not apply; and ii that the land is subject to— A sections 48(3) and 53 ; and B section 45(4) , in the case of the Omahu whenua, the Te Awe whenua, and the Tumutumu whenua; and b for the Kahumaro whenua and the Te Ruinga whenua,— i that the land is subject to Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987, but that section 24 of that Act does not apply; and ii that the land is subject to— A sections 26 and 48(4) ; and B section 23(2) , in the case of the Kahumaro whenua; and C section 25(2) , in the case of the Te Ruinga whenua; and c for any other cultural redress property, that the land is subject to Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987. A notation made under subsection (1) that land is subject to Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987 is to be treated as having been made in compliance with section 24D(1) of that Act. For a reserve property, if the reservation of the property under this subpart is revoked for— a all of the property, the Director-General must apply in writing to the Registrar-General to remove from the record of title for the property the notations that— i section 24 of the Conservation Act 1987 does not apply to the property; and ii the property is subject to sections 48(3) and 53 ; and iii the property is subject to section 45(4) , in the case of the Omahu whenua, the Te Awe whenua, and the Tumutumu whenua; or b part of the property, the Registrar-General must ensure that the notations referred to in paragraph (a) remain only on the record of title for the part of the property that remains a reserve. Subsections (5) and (6) apply if all or part of the Kahumaro whenua or the Te Ruinga whenua is declared to no longer be a soil conservation reserve subject to the Soil Conservation and Rivers Control Act 1941 ( see sections 23(3) and 25(3) of this Act). If all of the property ceases to be a soil conservation reserve, a person authorised by the chief executive of the Ministry Secretary for the Environment must apply in writing to the Registrar-General to remove from the record of title for the property the notations that— a section 24 of the Conservation Act 1987 does not apply to the property; and b the property is subject to sections 26 and 48(4) ; and c the property is subject to section 23(2) , in the case of the Kahumaro whenua; and. d the property is subject to section 25(2) , in the case of the Te Ruinga whenua. If part of the property ceases to be a soil conservation reserve, the Registrar-General must ensure that the notations referred to in subsection (5) remain only on the record of title for the part of the property that remains a soil conservation reserve. The Registrar-General must comply with an application received in accordance with subsection (3)(a) or (5) . In this section, Secretary for the Environment has the meaning given to the term Secretary in section 2 of the Environment Act 1986. 50 Application of other enactments The Crown Minerals Act 1991 applies, subject to subpart 2 of Part 3 , in relation to the vesting of the fee simple estate in a cultural redress property under this subpart. The permission of a local authority under section 348 of the Local Government Act 1974 is not required for laying out, forming, granting, or reserving a private road, private way, or right of way required to fulfil the terms of the deed of settlement in relation to a cultural redress property. Sections 24 and 25 of the Reserves Act 1977 do not apply to the revocation, under this subpart, of the reserve status of a cultural redress property. Section 11 and Part 10 of the Resource Management Act 1991 do not apply to— a the vesting of the fee simple estate in a cultural redress property under this subpart; or b any matter incidental to, or required for the purpose of, the vesting. 51 Names of Crown protected areas discontinued Subsection (2) applies to the land, or the part of the land, in a cultural redress property that, immediately before the date on which the property vests, was all or part of a Crown protected area. The official geographic name of the Crown protected area is discontinued in respect of the land, or the part of the land, and the Board must amend the Gazetteer accordingly. In this section, Board , Crown protected area , Gazetteer , and official geographic name have the meanings given in section 4 of the New Zealand Geographic Board (Ngā Pou Taunaha o Aotearoa) Act 2008. 52 Application of other enactments to reserve properties The trustees are the administering body of a reserve property, except as provided for in sections 31, 32, 33, and 36 . Sections 78(1)(a), 79 to 81, and 88 of the Reserves Act 1977 do not apply in relation to a reserve property. If the reservation of a reserve property under this subpart is revoked under section 24 of the Reserves Act 1977 for all or part of the property, section 25(2) of that Act applies to the revocation, but not the rest of section 25 of that Act. A reserve property is not a Crown protected area under the New Zealand Geographic Board (Ngā Pou Taunaha o Aotearoa) Act 2008, despite anything in that Act. A reserve property must not have a name assigned to it or have its name changed under section 16(10) of the Reserves Act 1977 without the written consent of the owners of the property, and section 16(10A) of that Act does not apply to the proposed name. While the council is the administering body of 1 or more of the Omahu whenua, the Te Awe whenua, the Te Mokena Hou whenua, or the Tumutumu whenua (the properties ),— a subsection (2) does not apply to the properties; and b the council must, to the extent that it is reasonably practicable to distinguish the revenue derived from the properties from any other revenue received by the council,— i hold the revenue received from the properties by the council in its capacity as the administering body; and ii account for that revenue separately from any other revenue of the council; and iii use that revenue only in relation to the properties that continue to be administered by the council. 53 Subsequent transfer of reserve land This section applies to all or the part of a reserve property that remains a reserve under the Reserves Act 1977 after the property has vested in the trustees under this subpart. The fee simple estate in the reserve land may be transferred only in accordance with section 54 or 55 . In this section and sections 54 to 56 , reserve land means the land that remains a reserve as described in subsection (1) . 54 Transfer of reserve land to new administering body The registered owners of the reserve land may apply in writing to the Minister of Conservation for consent to transfer the fee simple estate in the reserve land to 1 or more persons (the new owners ). The Minister of Conservation must give written consent to the transfer if the registered owners satisfy the Minister that the new owners are able— a to comply with the requirements of the Reserves Act 1977; and b to perform the duties of an administering body under that Act. The Registrar-General must, upon receiving the required documents, register the new owners as the owners of the fee simple estate in the reserve land. The required documents are— a a transfer instrument to transfer the fee simple estate in the reserve land to the new owners, including a notification that the new owners are to hold the reserve land for the same reserve purposes as those for which it was held by the administering body immediately before the transfer; and b the written consent of the Minister of Conservation to the transfer of the reserve land; and c the written consent of the administering body of the reserve land, if the trustees are transferring the reserve land but are not the administering body; and d any other document required for the registration of the transfer instrument. The new owners, from the time of their registration under this section,— a are the administering body of the reserve land; and b hold the reserve land for the same reserve purposes as those for which it was held by the administering body immediately before the transfer. A transfer that complies with this section need not comply with any other requirements. 55 Transfer of reserve land if trustees change The registered owners of the reserve land may transfer the fee simple estate in the reserve land if— a the transferors of the reserve land are or were the trustees of a trust; and b the transferees are the trustees of the same trust, after any new trustee has been appointed to the trust or any transferor has ceased to be a trustee of the trust; and c the instrument to transfer the reserve land is accompanied by a certificate given by the transferees, or the transferees' lawyer, verifying that paragraphs (a) and (b) apply. 56 Reserve land not to be mortgaged The owners of reserve land must not mortgage, or give a security interest in, the reserve land. 57 Saving of bylaws, etc, in relation to reserve properties This section applies to any bylaw, or any prohibition or restriction on use or access, that an administering body or the Minister of Conservation made or imposed under the Conservation Act 1987 or the Reserves Act 1977 in relation to a reserve property before the property was vested in the trustees under this subpart. The bylaw, prohibition, or restriction remains in force until it expires or is revoked under the Conservation Act 1987 or the Reserves Act 1977. 58 Interpretation In this subpart,— agreed date means the date or dates specified under the agreed terms for the vesting of all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land agreed terms means the terms and conditions under which any Te Aroha Domain land vests under this subpart as agreed by— a the Crown; and b the trustees; and c the council (except if section 60(1)(c) applies) joint management body means the body established by section 72 Minister means the Minister of Conservation reserve land means all or any part of the vested land that remains a reserve under the Reserves Act 1977 Te Aroha Domain land has the meaning given in section 59(3) vested land means all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land that is vested in the trustees under this subpart. 59 Record of title for Te Aroha Domain land to be noted The Registrar-General must, as soon as is reasonably practicable after the settlement date, note on the record of title for the Te Aroha Domain land that this subpart applies to the land in the record of title. However, if the fee simple estate in all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land vests in the trustees in accordance with this subpart, the Registrar-General must remove the notation made under subsection (1) from the record of title for the land that has vested. In this subpart, Te Aroha Domain land means the land described by that name in Schedule 2 or as may be resurveyed from time to time on a survey plan approved by LINZ. 60 Te Aroha Domain land may be vested in trustees This section applies if— a the council resolves that it considers that the reservation of all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land as a reserve subject to the Reserves Act 1977 should be revoked; or b the council resolves that it considers that all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land should vest in the trustees subject to the land continuing to be a reserve under the Reserves Act 1977; or c the vesting of all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land in the council is cancelled under section 27 of the Reserves Act 1977. The Minister, after consulting the council and trustees as relevant, must decide whether the land to be vested in the trustees— a is no longer required as a reserve under the Reserves Act 1977; or b should continue to be a reserve under that Act. If subsection (2)(a) applies, on the agreed date and in accordance with the agreed terms,— a the reservation of all or the part of the Te Aroha Domain land as a reserve subject to the Reserves Act 1977 is revoked; and b the fee simple estate in that land vests in the trustees. If subsection (2)(b) applies, on the agreed date and in accordance with the agreed terms,— a the reservation of all or the part of the Te Aroha Domain land as a reserve subject to the Reserves Act 1977 is revoked; and b the fee simple estate in that land vests in the trustees; and c the land is declared a reserve and classified according to the classification specified in the agreed terms and subject to the Reserves Act 1977. If subsection (4) applies, the administering body is one of the following, as specified in the agreed terms: a the trustees: b the council, as if it were appointed to control and manage the reserve under section 28 of the Reserves Act 1977: c the council, and the Reserves Act 1977 applies as if the reserve were vested in the council under section 26 of that Act: d the joint management body. If subsection (1)(c) applies, on the agreed date and in accordance with the agreed terms, the reservation of all or the part of the Te Aroha Domain land as a reserve subject to the Reserves Act 1977 is revoked and— a the fee simple estate in that land vests in the trustees; or b the fee simple estate in that land vests in the trustees and the land is declared a reserve and classified according to the classification specified in the agreed terms and subject to the Reserves Act 1977. If subsection (6)(b) applies, the trustees are the administering body of the reserve. 61 Notification in Gazette The Minister must publish a notice in the Gazette as soon as practicable after the date on which all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land vests in the trustees. The notice must specify— a the legal description of the land; and b the date on which the land vested; and c if the land has been vested as a reserve subject to the Reserves Act 1977,— i the reserve classification under that Act for the land; and ii the name of the reserve; and iii the administering body of the reserve. 62 Land vests subject to or together with interests The vested land is subject to, or has the benefit of, any interests— a that apply to the land immediately before its vesting: b that are required to be granted under the agreed terms. 63 Interests in land if Te Aroha Domain land is to be administered as reserve This section applies to the reserve land, but only if the administering body of the reserve land— a is the joint management body; or b is the council, if it is treated as if the reserve land were vested in it. If the reserve land is affected by an interest in land at the time the land vests, the interest applies as if the administering body were the grantor, or the grantee, as the case may be, of the interest in respect of the reserve land. Any interest in land that affects the reserve land must be dealt with for the purposes of registration as if the joint management body or the council, as the case may be, were the registered owner of the reserve land. However, subsections (2) and (3) do not affect the registration of an interest required to be granted by the trustees under the agreed terms. Subsections (2) and (3) continue to apply to the reserve land despite any subsequent transfer of the land under section 76 . 64 Interests that are not interests in land This section applies if the vested land is subject to an interest (other than an interest in land) at the time the land vests, and for which there is a grantor, whether or not the interest also applies to land outside the vested land. The interest applies as if the trustees were the grantor of the interest in respect of the vested land, except to the extent that subsection (3) applies. If the vested land is reserve land to which section 63 applies, the interest applies as if the administering body of the reserve land were the grantor of the interest in respect of the reserve land. The interest applies— a until the interest expires or is terminated, but any subsequent transfer of the vested land must be ignored in determining whether the interest expires or is or may be terminated; and b with any other necessary modifications; and c despite any change in status of the vested land. 65 Registration of ownership Subsection (2) applies to the extent that the vested land is all of the land contained in a record of title for a fee simple estate. The Registrar-General must, on written application by an authorised person,— a register the trustees as the owners of the fee simple estate in the vested land; and b record any entry on the record of title and do anything else necessary to give effect to this subpart and to part 5 of the deed of settlement. Subsection (4) applies to the vested land to the extent that subsection (2) does not apply to the land. The Registrar-General must, in accordance with a written application by an authorised person,— a create a record of title for the fee simple estate in the vested land in the name of the trustees; and b record on the record of title any interests that are registered, noted, or to be noted and that are described in the application. Subsection (4) is subject to the completion of any survey necessary to create a record of title. A written application under subsection (2) or (4) must include a copy of the notice published in the Gazette under section 61 . A record of title must be created under this section as soon as is reasonably practicable after the date on which the land vests. In this section, authorised person means a person authorised by the Director-General. 66 Matters to be recorded on record of title for vested land The Registrar-General must record on the record of title for the vested land that the land is subject to Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987. If the vested land is reserve land, the Registrar-General must also record on the record of title for that land that the land is subject to— a section 74 ; and b section 63(3) , in the case of land with an administering body referred to in section 63(1) . A notation made under subsection (1) that the vested land is subject to Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987 is to be treated as having been made in compliance with section 24D(1) of that Act. If a body referred to in section 63(1) is no longer the administering body of the reserve land, the Director-General must apply in writing to the Registrar-General to remove from the record of title for the land the notation that the land is subject to section 63(3) . If the reservation of the vested land under this subpart is revoked for— a all of the land, the Director-General must apply in writing to the Registrar-General to remove from the record of title for the land the notations that— i the land is subject to section 74 ; and ii the land is subject to section 63(3) , if relevant and if that notation has not been removed under subsection (4) ; or b part of the land, the Registrar-General must ensure that the notations referred to in paragraph (a) remain only on the record of title for the part of the land that remains a reserve. The Registrar-General must comply with an application received in accordance with subsection (4) or (5)(a) . 67 Application of other enactments The vesting of the fee simple estate in all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land in the trustees is a disposition for the purposes of Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987, but sections 24(2A), 24A, and 24AA of that Act do not apply to the disposition. The Crown Minerals Act 1991 applies, subject to subpart 2 of Part 3 , in relation to the vesting of the fee simple estate in all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land in the trustees. The permission of a council under section 348 of the Local Government Act 1974 is not required for laying out, forming, granting, or reserving a private road, private way, or right of way required to fulfil the agreed terms. Sections 24 and 25 of the Reserves Act 1977 do not apply to the revocation, under this subpart, of the reserve status of all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land to be vested in the trustees. Section 11 and Part 10 of the Resource Management Act 1991 do not apply to— a the vesting of the fee simple estate in all or any part of the Te Aroha Domain land under this subpart; or b any matter incidental to, or required for the purpose of, the vesting. 68 Application of other enactments to reserve land If the trustees are the administering body of the reserve land, sections 78(1)(a), 79 to 81, and 88 of the Reserves Act 1977 do not apply in relation to that land. If the reservation of the reserve land under this subpart is revoked under section 24 of the Reserves Act 1977 for all or part of the land, section 25(2) of that Act applies to the revocation, but not the rest of section 25 of that Act. The reserve land is not a Crown protected area under the New Zealand Geographic Board (Ngā Pou Taunaha o Aotearoa) Act 2008, despite anything in that Act. The reserve land must not have a name assigned to it or have its name changed under section 16(10) of the Reserves Act 1977 without the written consent of the owners of the property, and section 16(10A) of that Act does not apply to the proposed name. If the joint management body is the administering body of the reserve land,— a Part 4 of the Reserves Act 1977, which relates to financial provisions, applies to the joint management body as if it were a local authority; and b the council must, to the extent that it is reasonably practicable to distinguish the revenue derived from the reserve land from any other revenue received by the council,— i hold the revenue received from the reserve land by the joint management body in its capacity as the administering body; and ii account for that revenue separately from any other revenue of the council; and iii use that revenue, under the direction of the joint management body, but only in relation to the reserve land that continues to be administered by the joint management body. If the council is the administering body of the reserve land, the council must, to the extent that it is reasonably practicable to distinguish the revenue derived from that land from any other revenue received by the council,— a hold the revenue received from the reserve land by the council in its capacity as the administering body; and b account for that revenue separately from any other revenue of the council; and c use that revenue only in relation to the reserve land that continues to be administered by the council. 69 Reserve land administered by council Sections 70 and 71 apply if the council is to be the administering body of the reserve land as if the council were appointed to control and manage the reserve land under section 28 of the Reserves Act 1977. 70 Future interests relating to reserve land This section applies to the reserve land, but only while the trustees are the owners and the council is the administering body of that land. Despite the council being the administering body, the trustees may, as if they were the administering body of the reserve land,— a accept, grant, or decline to grant any interest in land that affects the reserve land, or renew or vary such an interest; and b renew or vary any existing interest in land. A person must apply under this section, in writing, through the council— a to obtain a new interest in land that affects the reserve land, or renew or vary such an interest; and b to renew or vary an existing interest in land. The council must— a advise the trustees of any application received under subsection (3) ; and b undertake the administrative processes required by the Reserves Act 1977 in relation to each application. Before the trustees determine an application, the trustees must consult the council. The council may— a accept, grant, or decline to grant an interest that is not an interest in land and that affects the reserve land, or renew or vary such an interest; and b renew or vary any existing interest that is not an interest in land. The Reserves Act 1977, except section 59A of that Act, applies to the accepting, granting, or declining of any interests under subsection (2) or (6) , or the renewing or varying of such interests. In this section, existing interest means an interest that affects the reserve land at the time it vests in the trustees. 71 Administration of reserve land This section applies only while the trustees are the owners of the reserve land. The trustees and the council may jointly— a agree that the council no longer be the administering body of the reserve land; and b notify the Minister in writing of that agreement. The Minister must, not later than 20 working days after receiving the notice, publish a notice in the Gazette declaring that— a the council is no longer the administering body of the reserve land; and b the trustees are the administering body of the reserve land. The Minister may, at the Minister’s sole discretion, revoke the appointment of the council as the administering body of the reserve land if requested in writing to do so by the trustees or the council. Before making a decision under subsection (4) , the Minister must consult the trustees and the council. When the Minister has determined a request, the Minister must— a notify the trustees and the council in writing of the Minister’s decision; and b if the Minister decides to revoke the appointment of the council as the administering body of the reserve land, publish a notice in the Gazette not later than 20 working days after giving notice under paragraph (a) , declaring that— i the council is no longer the administering body of the reserve land; and ii the trustees are the administering body of the reserve land. The trustees are the administering body of the reserve land on and from the date on which a notice is published under subsection (3) or (6)(b) . 72 Reserve land administered jointly This section applies if the reserve land is to be administered jointly by the trustees and the council. A joint management body is established for the reserve land. The following are appointers for the purposes of this section: a the trustees; and b the council. Each appointer must appoint 2 members to the joint management body. At least 1 of the members appointed by the council must be an elected member of the council. A member is appointed only if the appointer gives written notice with the following details to the other appointers: a the full name, address, and other contact details of the member; and b the date on which the appointment takes effect, which must be not earlier than the date of the notice. An appointment ends after 3 years or when the appointer replaces the member by making another appointment.

A member may be appointed, reappointed, or discharged at the discretion of the appointer. 73 Application of Reserves Act 1977 to joint management body If the joint management body is the administering body of the reserve land, the Reserves Act 1977 applies to the reserve land as if the reserve land were vested in that body (as if the body were trustees) under section 26 of that Act. However, the joint management body may exercise or perform, as if it were a local authority, a power or function that the Minister has delegated to local authorities under section 10 of the Reserves Act 1977, but only to the extent that the power or function is relevant to the reserve land. Except as provided in subsections (1) and (2) , sections 32 to 34 of the Reserves Act 1977 apply to the joint management body (the body ) as if it were a board. The following provisions apply despite the specified requirements of the Reserves Act 1977: a despite section 32(1) of that Act, the first meeting of the body must be held not later than 6 months after the date on which the land vests in the trustees: b despite section 32(5) of that Act, the trustees must appoint the chairperson and the council must appoint the deputy chairperson of the body: c despite section 32(7) of that Act,— i no casting vote may be exercised and the members must strive to reach a consensus; but ii if a consensus cannot be reached within a reasonable time, a decision must be made by majority vote: d despite section 32(8) and (9) of that Act, all members must be present for all business of the body: e despite section 32(10) of that Act, the members must strive to reach a consensus but, if a consensus cannot be reached within a reasonable time, the question must be determined by majority vote: f despite section 41(1) of that Act, any management plan in force for the Te Aroha Domain land immediately before the date on which the land vests continues to apply to that land. In this section, consensus means the absence of a formally recorded dissent by a member at a meeting of the body. 74 Subsequent transfer of reserve land The fee simple estate in the reserve land may be transferred only in accordance with section 75 or 76 . 75 Transfer of reserve land to new administering body The registered owners of the reserve land may apply in writing to the Minister for consent to transfer the fee simple estate in the reserve land to 1 or more persons (the new owners ). The Minister must give written consent to the transfer if the registered owners satisfy the Minister that the new owners are able— a to comply with the requirements of the Reserves Act 1977; and b to perform the duties of an administering body under that Act. The Registrar-General must, upon receiving the required documents, register the new owners as the owners of the fee simple estate in the reserve land. The required documents are— a a transfer instrument to transfer the fee simple estate in the reserve land to the new owners, including a notification that the new owners are to hold the reserve land for the same reserve purposes as those for which it was held by the administering body immediately before the transfer; and b the written consent of the Minister to the transfer of the reserve land; and c the written consent of the administering body of the reserve land, if the trustees are transferring the reserve land and are not the administering body; and d any other document required for the registration of the transfer instrument. The new owners, from the time of their registration under this section,— a are the administering body of the reserve land; and b hold the reserve land for the same reserve purposes as those for which it was held by the administering body immediately before the transfer. A transfer that complies with this section need not comply with any other requirements. 76 Transfer of reserve land if trustees change The registered owners of the reserve land may transfer the fee simple estate in the reserve land if— a the transferors of the reserve land are or were the trustees of a trust; and b the transferees are the trustees of the same trust, after any new trustee has been appointed to the trust or any transferor has ceased to be a trustee of the trust; and c the instrument to transfer the reserve land is accompanied by a certificate given by the transferees, or the transferees' lawyer, verifying that paragraphs (a) and (b) apply. 77 Reserve land not to be mortgaged The owners of the reserve land must not mortgage, or give a security interest in, the reserve land. 78 Saving of bylaws, etc, in relation to reserve land This section applies to any bylaw, or any prohibition or restriction on use or access, that an administering body or the Minister of Conservation made or imposed under the Conservation Act 1987 or the Reserves Act 1977 in relation to the reserve land before the land was vested in the trustees under this subpart.

However, this section applies only to the extent that— a the property is not all of the land contained in a record of title for a fee simple estate; or b there is no record of title for the fee simple estate in all or part of the property. The Registrar-General must, in accordance with a written application by an authorised person,— a create a record of title for the fee simple estate in the property in the name of the Crown; and b record on the record of title any interests that are registered, noted, or to be noted and that are described in the application; but c omit any statement of purpose from the record of title.

The transfer is a disposition for the purposes of Part 4A of the Conservation Act 1987, but sections 24(2A), 24A, and 24AA of that Act do not apply to the disposition. The Crown Minerals Act 1991 applies subject to subpart 2 . The permission of a local authority under section 348 of the Local Government Act 1974 is not required for laying out, forming, granting, or reserving a private road, private way, or right of way required to fulfil the terms of the deed of settlement in relation to the transfer. Section 11 and Part 10 of the Resource Management Act 1991 do not apply to the transfer or to any matter incidental to, or required for the purpose of, the transfer.

Despite section 11 of the Crown Minerals Act 1991, on the settlement date any Crown owned minerals (other than section 10 minerals) in the land referred to in section 118(1)(d) become the property of the trustees if, on that date, they own the land. However, if a share in any relevant land is vested in or transferred to the trustees, the trustees own a share of any Crown owned minerals (other than section 10 minerals) in the same proportion as the shares in which they own the relevant land. To avoid doubt, the vesting or transfer of land referred to in section 118(1) is subject to any mineral interests or rights to which, immediately before the commencement of this subpart, any person other than the Crown was entitled under the Land Transfer Act 2017 or any other Act, whether or not such interests or rights are recorded on the record of title for the land. 121 Application of Crown Minerals Act 1991 Nothing in this subpart— a limits section 10 of the Crown Minerals Act 1991; or b affects other lawful rights to subsurface minerals. Section 49A of the Crown Minerals Act 1991 applies to the land described in section 118(1) . 122 Notation of mineral ownership on records of title (other than for early release commercial property) This section, instead of section 86 of the Crown Minerals Act 1991, applies to land referred to in section 118(1)(a) to (c) at the time of its vesting or transfer. An instrument lodged in respect of that land must include a request to the Registrar-General to record on any record of title for the land that the land is subject to section 120 of the Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu Claims Settlement Act 2025 . The Registrar-General must comply with a request received under subsection (2) . In this section, instrument means— a a written application lodged under section 47(3), (5), or (6) , as applicable, in respect of land referred to in section 118(1)(a) ; or b a written application lodged under section 65 in respect of land referred to in section 118(1)(b) ; or c a transfer instrument lodged in respect of land referred to in section 118(1)(c) . 123 Notation of mineral ownership on record of title for early release commercial property This section, instead of section 86 of the Crown Minerals Act 1991, applies to land referred to in section 118(1)(d) if that land is owned by the trustees on the settlement date. As soon as is reasonably practicable after the settlement date, a person authorised by the chief executive of LINZ must make a written request to the Registrar-General— a to record on the record of title for the land that the land is subject to section 120 of the Ngāti Rāhiri Tumutumu Claims Settlement Act 2025 ; and b to remove from the record of title for the land the notation that the land is subject to section 11 of the Crown Minerals Act 1991. The Registrar-General must comply with a request received under subsection (2) . 124 Purpose and scope of arrangement for payments The purpose of sections 125 to 129 is to provide that the rights to vested minerals include the payment by the Crown, in relation to the vested minerals, of— a the representative amount; or b if section 129(2) applies, the actual amount. Payments made under subsection (1) must be made to the trustees. The representative amount or the actual amount payable is based on the amount of royalties paid to the Crown in the preceding year or years for which an application is made under section 130 in respect of the vested minerals. Payment of the representative amount or the actual amount, as appropriate, discharges the obligations of the Crown under this subpart in respect of any royalties paid to the Crown in respect of the vested minerals. 125 Obligation to pay representative or actual amount The chief executive, on receiving an application under section 130 , must pay the representative amount or the actual amount, as appropriate, in respect of vested minerals to the trustees. Subsection (1) applies even if the trustees have sold all or any of the relevant land or vested minerals, and the chief executive is not required to transfer payments to, or otherwise deal with, any new owner of the vested minerals. The requirement to pay the representative amount or the actual amount applies— a only if the Crown has been paid royalties in respect of the vested minerals in the year or years preceding the year in which an application is made under section 130 ; and b only in respect of a period of not more than 8 years after the date on which those royalties were received by the Crown. This section is subject to section 128 (shared ownership of land), section 130 (application for payment of representative amount), and section 132 (other conditions applying to payments). 126 Calculation of representative amount The representative amount payable under section 125 is calculated using the following formula: $r × (a ÷ pa) where— a is the area of relevant land within or overlapping the permit area pa is the total permit area of a privilege that is within or overlaps the relevant land $r is the total amount of royalties paid to the Crown in respect of the vested minerals, for the years applied for under section 130 , in respect of a privilege whose permit area is within or overlaps the relevant land. If— a is 4 sq kms; and pa is 20 sq kms; and $r is $1,500; then $1,500 × (4 ÷ 20) = $300. 127 Calculation of representative amount if more than 1 permit area If more than 1 permit area is within or overlaps the relevant land,— a the representative amounts must be separately calculated for each permit area in accordance with section 126 ; and b the total representative amount payable to the trustees in respect of the vested minerals for the permit areas is the sum of the separate amounts calculated under paragraph (a) . 128 Calculation of representative amount if relevant land held in shares If the relevant land is held in shares, the representative amount payable to the trustees in respect of the vested minerals is calculated using the following formula: $r × (a ÷ pa) × % where— a, pa, and $r have the meanings given to those terms in section 126 % is the percentage of the vested minerals owned in each share at the time the relevant land is vested in or transferred to the trustees. If— a is 4 sq kms; and pa is 20 sq kms; and $r is $1,500; and the vested minerals are owned in 20% shares; then $1,500 × (4 ÷ 20) × 20% = $60. 129 When actual amount may be paid When an application is received under section 130 , the Minister must determine whether the information is sufficient to identify the actual amount paid to the Crown as royalties in respect of vested minerals in the year or years applied for. If the Minister is satisfied that there is sufficient information to determine the actual amount referred to in subsection (1) , the Minister must pay to the trustees the actual amount to which the application relates in respect of those vested minerals instead of the representative amount that would otherwise be payable. If there is not sufficient information to enable the Minister to make a determination under subsection (1) , the chief executive must determine the representative amount payable in accordance with this subpart. If the relevant land is owned in shares, any payment of the actual amount in respect of the vested minerals must be made in the same proportion as the proportion of the shares held in the relevant land at the time the land is vested in or transferred to the trustees. 130 Application requirements The trustees (but no other person or body) may apply for payment of the representative amount. Applications must be made— a in writing to the chief executive; and b not more than once a year; and c not later than 31 March in respect of the preceding year or years applied for. Example relating to paragraph (c) The trustees may apply— by 31 March 2023 for a payment relating to the year 2022: by 31 March 2028 for a payment relating to the years 2022 to 2027. An application must not relate to any year earlier than 8 years before the date of the application. An application must contain the information necessary to establish— a that the relevant land is or was owned by the trustees (for example, a copy of the record of title for the land); and b the date on which the vested minerals in the relevant land became the property of the trustees; and c the shares (if any) in which the land is held; and d the year or years to which the application relates; and e the details of the trustees for the purpose of enabling payment to be made. No payment may be made unless an application is made under this section. The chief executive may request further information from the trustees— a to establish the information required under subsection (4) : b to enable the Minister to determine whether the actual amount or the representative amount is to be paid. 131 Advice to be given to trustees The chief executive must— a consider the application, including whether the information is sufficient to enable the Minister to determine the actual amount under section 129 ; and b advise the trustees in writing of the amount that the trustees are to be paid. 132 Other conditions applying to payments Payment of the representative amount or actual amount, as the case requires,— a must be made as soon as is reasonably practicable after 31 March in each year; but b must not be made more than once a year. For the first year of payment of the representative amount or actual amount, the payment must be calculated— a from the date on which the vested minerals in the relevant land became the property of the trustees (the vesting date ); and b in proportion to the number of days that have elapsed in that year on and from the vesting date. Interest is not payable on the amounts paid under this subpart, irrespective of the period to which an amount relates. 133 Confidentiality of information disclosed or received Any information disclosed to the trustees by the Crown under this subpart is a disclosure permitted under section 90A of the Crown Minerals Act 1991. Information about the royalties paid to the Crown in respect of the vested minerals may be disclosed to the trustees in fulfilment of the obligations of the Crown under this subpart. Information disclosed under subsection (2) is confidential to the trustees, subject to any legal obligations that the trustees may have to disclose the information, such as any statutory reporting requirements. 134 Amendments to Crown Minerals Act 1991 This section amends the Crown Minerals Act 1991.
